Just wondering for those who are on part livery (turn out, bring in, rug changes etc) pay per month/week?
I'm currently paying £29 for stable and straw, between £6.00-£15 a week for part livery (includes turn out and bring in, feeds and haynets put in and maybe a day on muck out).
Plus 2 haylages a month which are £35 each.
I pay approximately £220 a month for part livery including stable, straw and haylage (don't even get me started on feed! Damn Thoroughbred).
I'm based in the North West, wondering how much everyone else pays and where you are based?:)
 
I'm in East Midlands, have a basic charge of £130 a month for turning out, whether in the morning or evening; Everything else is added on; £1, ie rugs on/change/feeding/poo picking; If they are on holiday I charge the basic plus £5 a day; ( none of this includes feed/hay/bedding )

Livery charges are going up to a basic rate of £120 a month 1st January, that's for total diy; Liveries did look at me like I had two heads when I told them, one replying " Its only grazing"! So ok you don't want all my electric fencing then to strip graze your laminitic horse, or a lovely stone stable, or as much room as you want in the rug room/feed room/tack room, Or your trailer on my land for free?

Does make me laugh especially when they think nothing of taking their dog to the kennels and paying at least £10 a night!
 
I've got a funny set up with my part livery as the yard doesn't offer it but one of the liveries runs a schooling business from it. So I pay £30 per week for DIY, then an extra £40 for 3 full days full livery which also includes riding. So I pay £70 in total, this works for us baby horse gets worked 6 days a week, id like him worked less but then he is a pain to handle and manage, so he has 3 light days which means he gets ridden between 20/30 mins then a a bit more on other days. The lad who does my part livery will also give me free lessons and will go pop rugs on/off weather it be his days or not (he lives on site) I supply all feed/hay/bedding but as I have a fatty with no supplements or shoes to pay out it evens out, and only going up the yard 4 days instead of 7 means it's cheaper on fuel as it's not close to me either. It's a strange arrangement but works for us and the horse is the happiest I've ever seen him

I always use this comparison too! Apparently it's around £8 per day to keep a cat at a cattery, but for some unknown reason some people, and I stress it's only some, thinks it's unreasonable to pay £3.50 per day to keep a horse at livery! Sorry not really helpful to original poster, but is just had to comment!
 
You all seem to have a pretty good deal! I pay £55 a week DIY, which includes my hay. I then pay £10 a week on top of that for turnout Monday-Friday. Bedding and feed is separate. I'm in the south east.
 
I am in the south east, I pay £350 a month which includes: all feed/hay/bedding, 7 day muck out, all rug changes, bi/to both ends of the day, AYTO (24/7 in summer), a floodlit school and good hacking - basically all I have to do is ride, clean my tack and groom.
 
I'm moving to the north east and going on part livery. This includes everything (hay, shavings, stable, grazing, turn out, bring in, rug changes, feeding and mucking out) except food for 5 days a week, for £55pw. Also have use of an indoor school for free (lights are £1) and excellent hacking. Can up it to £80pw for weekends too.
Sounds like I've got it pretty lucky! :)
 
I'm in Sheffield, I pay £130 a month for diy (hay and bedding not included) and then pay another livery £2 a day to feed and turn out weekday mornings. So £170 a month in all.
 
I'm in the south west and pay around £120 a month for DIY grass livery!! It's either that or I need to move to part livery but having a native don't need to stable her so this is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
